Baking Trials: Blue Velvet Cake or is that just Moldy?

I made a whole cake, including icing, from scratch. This is a pretty big accomplishment for me, since I have never done it before!   I saw a recipe online on how to make a Blue Velvet Cake and I had to make it!

I found the recipe on the Food Network’s website. The only problem with it is that it called for 2 fluid ounces of blue food coloring and I had 0.25; therefore, it ended up looking a blue moldy color instead of the actual blue it is suppose to be. It was very good or at least I think so! :) Below are pictures:

As you can tell, I’m not a very good icer. ;)

What do you think?

(By the way, sorry for the small photos. Apparently flickr is doing something weird and I can’t copy the larger picture’s location.)
